ABVP Proposes Two-Stage Exams and Twice-Yearly NEET to Nilekani Task ForcePreviousNext

The Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) has submitted comprehensive recommendations to the Nandan Nilekani-led task force proposing reforms for major competitive exams, including NEET. Key suggestions include a two-stage examination process for shortlisting and final selection, and conducting NEET twice a year with the better score considered. The proposals also call for enhanced transparency, stronger security, computer-based testing, uniform standards for exam centers, robust candidate verification, and clear protocols for technical failures. Long-term reforms emphasize coordination between curriculum and assessments and reducing coaching dependence.
